I hope ucla gets into the final 4, Which is my least favorite of these teams,
Part of me really wants to see a Gonzaga, Loyola final game. I think that would be fun.

Add on.

Pac 12 up to 3rd in kenpoms conference ratings.

Love those guys.

Damn it UCLA. It would have been nice to have 4 women's teams in the sweet 16 to go with the 4 men's teams.

Yeah, no. You really wanna see those a'holes get to a fourth FF since our last one? That's not the sort of thing I can root for. So I'll respectfully dissent. I'm not sure you want to put wind in the Bruins' sails again.

My bracket picks have been miserable. With that said:

Loyola over Oregon St
Baylor over Nova
Arkansas over Oral
Houston over Cuse
Gonzaga over Creighton
Florida State over Michigan
Alabama over UCLA
USC over Oregon

Why aren't games starting until Saturday?

Normally Thursday- Sunday
Last week Friday-Monday
This week Saturday-Tuesday?

I don't get why

I have been wondering the same. My thoughts were to shorten the time the teams are in the bubble but not sure that is true

That's what I was thinking... more off days means more chances for things to go wrong.

Especially with the Final Four next Saturday, four days after the Elite Eight games.

These rankings are laughably bad.

C'mon Beavs!

Posted: **Sat Mar 27, 2021 12:33 pm**

Beavs 24-16 at the half.

Posted: **Sat Mar 27, 2021 12:40 pm**

Both defenses are really good. I expect Loyola will shoot much better in the second half but pulling for the Beavers.

Posted: **Sat Mar 27, 2021 1:37 pm**

Here comes Sister Jean

Posted: **Sat Mar 27, 2021 1:40 pm**

Beavs' ball movement has been terrible lately, just iso plays.

Posted: **Sat Mar 27, 2021 1:52 pm**

Pac gonna have at least 2 teams in the Elite 8

Posted: **Sat Mar 27, 2021 1:53 pm**

Posted: **Sat Mar 27, 2021 1:57 pm**

Good job!

Posted: **Sat Mar 27, 2021 1:58 pm**

Nice job Beavs!

Posted: **Sat Mar 27, 2021 2:00 pm**

Low-level game, but congrats to the Beavs. Nice to feel good about anything these days. I’ll laugh if OSU ends up playing an 11 seed to go to the Final Four. “Tinkle is a better coach than . . . “! Aw fuck, never mind.

So oregon state is responsible for close to as much money distributed to the members of the pac 12 as the pac 12 network?

That's great. Thanks Larry!!

Posted: **Sat Mar 27, 2021 2:30 pm**

These wins mean so much more than just these front line dollars. Can you imagine vegas next year where instead of just AZ fans buying all of the tickets, you will each of these fan bases rolling into town for another shot at the magic. That ticket next year won’t be an easy one.

Posted: **Sat Mar 27, 2021 2:43 pm**

Really happy for the Beavers and Tinkle. They have been an afterthought for years. Hope this helps them land some recruits. The PAC need 6 teams a year in the tourney minimum.

Posted: **Sat Mar 27, 2021 4:01 pm**

Feeling like Baylor is about to take control

Posted: **Sat Mar 27, 2021 4:04 pm**

I want an Arizona version of the sweater that the Nova coaches are wearing.

Posted: **Sat Mar 27, 2021 4:50 pm**

O Roberts can really shoot the 3

Posted: **Sat Mar 27, 2021 5:08 pm**

ORU has got to be the best 15 seed of all time, right?

Posted: **Sun Mar 28, 2021 12:36 pm**

Anyone else think Zaga’s in trouble vs. the winner of SC/Oregon?

Not really. IMO the Zags are just good from the ground up. We all recognize their offense, but they are up in the grill on D as well, and they ain't slow. If they lose to SC or Oregon it will take a confluence of extraordinary unfavorables. If things go as typical I think they'll win.

Only if Gonzaga has a really bad game.

They are the most complete team and I don't think its close

Posted: **Sun Mar 28, 2021 1:53 pm**

Thought Gonzaga’s D looked like Swiss cheese against a very average Creighton team.

And they still won by nearly twenty.

They’re the best team in the field and I don’t know that it’s close. Doesn’t mean they’ll win it all, but it will take an extraordinary effort to beat them.

Posted: **Sun Mar 28, 2021 2:24 pm**

This article goes to show how spoiled we Wildcat fans have become, expecting an elite 8 or final 4 just about every year.

Creighton looked TERRIBLE, though. They had to be one of the weaker S16 teams.

Anyway, I’m just not as awed by Zaga. If they roll the Ducks or Trojans, I’ll stand corrected.

Creighton did look just plain off. They missed a ton of shots around the rim, and their shooting rhythm was way hurried. I was expecting a closer game.

Ucla in trouble early

They've recovered nicely.

Damn Ucla

40-29 Bruins at the half

Posted: **Sun Mar 28, 2021 5:18 pm**

I have ragged on Tyger but he is what kept UCLA afloat for the first 10 minutes. We are seeing what we lost in Javon because of the allegations from ESPN. There is no allegation of us paying players to come to Arizona.

Posted: **Sun Mar 28, 2021 5:22 pm**

Bruins are just the far tougher team. They are willing themselves through this tournament and particularly this game

Posted: **Sun Mar 28, 2021 5:33 pm**

Bama woke up

Posted: **Sun Mar 28, 2021 5:36 pm**

Awful start to the second half for the Bruins.

Posted: **Sun Mar 28, 2021 5:37 pm**

Team is too tight. The half cooled them off

Posted: **Sun Mar 28, 2021 5:46 pm**

It's hard to root for the Mincey Trollops but I'm gonna ............ try.

Posted: **Sun Mar 28, 2021 5:48 pm**

I'm not cheering for them, I'm cheering for 3 pac 12 teams in the elite 8 which would be ridiculous.

Posted: **Sun Mar 28, 2021 5:56 pm**

Riley and Tyger arent up to this game. Both UCLA runs came with them on the bench. They gave up the lead both times when they came back in

Posted: **Sun Mar 28, 2021 6:19 pm**

Coming down to the end!

1 point game 1 minute to go

Posted: **Sun Mar 28, 2021 6:25 pm**

Got to make your ft's

Posted: **Sun Mar 28, 2021 6:29 pm**

Rooting for the bRuins feels awful and yet here I am.
